--Senior Biology, pre-pharmacy, major at Ouachita Baptist University. --CPR certified for 9 years, just retook the class last year. --AED and First Aid certified. --I am 21 and have siblings that are 14 and 12, I have been their only babysitter since I was 10 years old. That included babysitting while my parents were at work or out of town; sometimes just for the day, once it was for a whole week. I kept them all day during the summers while my parents were at work. Once I turned 16 I got them ready for school, packed lunches, drove them to and from school, and drove them to their various activities everyday for two years. Also once I was 16 I would take them to the pool almost everyday during the summers and to various VBS and summer activities. --Household chores have also been something I have been doing for Read more as long as I can remember, from the kitchen to the bathroom and all the floors and wall smudges in between. --I have also been running errands and doing the majority of the grocery shopping since I was 16. --Excellent cooking skills. My first job at the Country Club in Camden required me to cook anything from a burger to a roast. I have been cooking my own meals for two years now and have helped my dad in the kitchen since I was a little girl. --I have babysat multiple times for about 3 families over the last few years. -One family had two kids the same age as my siblings. -One family has a 7 year old, a 5 year old, and a 3 year old. I still babysit for this family occasionally and have been doing so for 2 years now. -The other family has an 18month old and a 10 year old and I also still babysit for this family occasionally and have been doing so for 2 years. --I have had other offers for babysitting but because of my responsibility to my siblings, I was unable to take them. --I have worked with kids a lot through church events such as keeping the nursery, being a VBS leader, being an AWANAS leader, and other related activities.
